ergosteur Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Found Neowin via the almighty Google. I think I first heard of it back when people were making WinXP style icon themes for Win98. I finally registered a couple of years ago, and finally posted a few days ago when I got an e-mail about the forum restructuring. Took a while, but here I am!

fr33k Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 A couple of months after I got my first computer with Windows 98 I bought the XP preview Windows XP RC1 through Microsoft. While contributing in the Microsoft news group for RC1 or was it RC2? Someone would post neowin's url for the latest leaked build screenshots. After a few months I finaly just joined.
